Mark Brandon (constitutional law), who is Professor of Law and Political Science at Vanderbilt University (and who was, before that, a tenured faculty member in the top-ranked Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) has accepted a Chair in the law school at the University of Alabama. That's a major appointment for Alabama, which has done a lot of strong hiring at the untenured level, but has not made many senior, lateral appointments.
